Content and formal aspects of Type A behavior pattern (TABP) were taking into consideration at the development of ATAB Questionnaire. It contains 22 items, which have a good discriminative power. Reliability of ATAB Questionnaire was assessed on two ways: by absolute stability and internal consistency. Validity was assessed by concurrent validity. The results of reliability and validity studies are satisfactory. Percentile ranks are prepared on the basis of 1438 females and 1211 males scores.
